in this study, the effects of incorporating grape seed powder (gsp) on flour physicochemical properties i.e. particle size, crude protein, fiber, wet gluten and gluten quality (zeleny test), and dough rheological properties were investigated. increasing incorporation levels of gsp from 5 to 25% (w/w flour basis) led to an increase in the amount of fat, total phenol, and total dietary fiber; whe...

the aim of this research was to investigate the effect of 8 weeks of aerobic training and omega-3 fatty acid supplementation on plasma sicam-1 in elderly men. in this study, 36 male non-athletes (aged between 50 and 70) were selected through available method and randomly divided into 4 groups (9 subjects per group): aerobic training+omega-3 supplement, aerobic training+placebo, omega-3 suppleme...

the effects of dietary inclusion of medicinal plants’ by-product mixture on performance, the relative internal organ weight, ileal microbial counts, and small intestinal and liver morphologic alterations in laying hens receiving different omega-6 to omega-3 ratios as a 2×3 factorial arrangements with three levels of plants’ by-product (zero, 2.5 and five percent) and two omega-6 to omega-3 rati...

   Two omega-3 fatty acids including docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) are essential for the physiologic function of neuronal cell membrane. Normal function of neuronal cell membrane requires appropriate composition of fatty in its structure. Present study was designed to compare the effect of short-term and long-term pretreatment with omega-3 fatty acids on scopolamine...

Polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids (omega-3 PUFA) are important components of cell membrane affecting its function and their deficiency is deleterious to health. We have previously shown that spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) are prone to life-threatening arrhythmias that are reduced by omega-3 PUFA intake. Purpose of this study was to explore plasma and red blood cells (RBC) profile of om...
